Being a developer at Fasthosts

Since 1999, Fasthosts has been designing new ways to give customers everything they need to manage and control their online space and we’ve become one of the leading internet technology businesses in the UK. We’re a team of tech-focus innovators, offering the latest innovations across our range of services including domain names, shared web hosting, business-class email, dedicated & virtual servers, cloud hosting, secure online storage and online backup.

We are a technology company with extremely strong and broad technology competencies and our Development teams are made up of great people! When you work with Fasthosts, you will work with a friendly, supportive, and highly knowledgeable group of people with experience across a variety of stacks, with people who embody a Tech forward mentality, and we will give you the opportunity to work on a variety of interesting and progressive projects.

Our software engineering jobs offer exposure to new and exciting technologies in a very rewarding environment, with continuous opportunities to deliver new products and feature sets. With a range of products, from Domain Registration to modern Container Hosting and Provisioning systems (and many more!), we use modern development stacks including Git, Docker, CI/CD pipelines, Jira, and Confluence. We also use a range of languages, from Golang for configuring our Kubernetes platforms, PHP for our legacy front-end APIs, and VueJS for our new front-ends. We always strive for high quality software development practices; and we invest in our people to keep skills fresh and current.


What about the team?

The Development and associated teams are made up of trusted, passionate, forward-thinking, highly knowledgeable, friendly, and all-round great people! In this role, you will report to the Development Manager and work alongside developer colleagues, software architect, dedicated UX designer, and QA engineer. You will also work directly with Product Owners to clarify requirements, recommend solutions, design architectures, then ultimately code the product using suitable technologies.

Our team operates in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Everyone takes ownership of their individual work and learning, while benefitting from a great team spirit where everyone works together to support, collaborate and learn. How do we do this?... We have daily standups (video or in office), regular chats to support and collaborate, and most importantly we have a leadership team that identifies the value in each individual employee so not only can you extend your skillset, but you can do so in a nurturing and sociable atmosphere. In our Software teams, you will never feel isolated – help will always be available.
